Description
COMING SOON! Historic Third Avenue | Timeless Elegance & Enduring Craftsmanship. Built in 1927, this distinguished historic residence embodies the timeless appeal of early 20th-century American architecture, blending classic Craftsman influences with subtle Prairie-style elements. Rich in history, character, and architectural integrity, the home is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of a bygone era. Perfectly positioned on the southwest corner of East 3rd Avenue and 7th Street, the home enjoys abundant southern exposure, allowing natural light to pour through its original divided-light windows throughout the day. Situated on a 43' x 150' corner lot with alley access, the property includes a detached two-car garage, an additional off-street parking space, and beautifully manicured grounds that enhance its commanding presence along one of Durango's most celebrated streets. The approach is quintessential Historic Third Avenue. A hedge-lined walkway winds through lush landscaping to a welcoming covered front porch, creating an inviting first impression and a gracious transition into the home. Inside, the 3,086-square-foot residence showcases the architectural details that define the era. Original hardwood floors, functioning steam radiators, extensive built-in cabinetry, divided-light windows, and carefully preserved details create an atmosphere that is both elegant and authentic. Thoughtful updates throughout the home complement its historic character without compromising its integrity. The formal living room is warm and inviting, with expansive east- and south-facing windows that bathe the space in natural light. Elevated above street level, the home enjoys an added sense of privacy while remaining in the heart of downtown Durango. Just beyond, the formal dining room provides an elegant setting for entertaining and flows seamlessly into the updated kitchen. A charming breakfast nook offers the perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee or afternoon cocktails. The primary suite, thoughtfully integrated into the original residence, serves as a luxurious private retreat with direct access to a private deck. Featuring dual closets and a spa-inspired bath complete with a soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, double vanities, and in-floor radiant heat, the suite offers exceptional comfort while remaining harmonious with the home's historic character. Also located on the main level are a guest bedroom, a den/library, and a full bathroom. The upper level offers outstanding flexibility with two guest bedrooms, a comfortable living area, kitchenette, and a three-quarter bath—ideal for extended family, guests, or multigenerational living. The lower level provides exceptional bonus space, including a family room, wet bar with a mini refrigerator, a three-quarter bath, and flexible space suitable for an additional bedroom or rec room. Easy access to the mechanical systems and generous storage further enhance the home's functionality. Outside, the private backyard has been thoughtfully designed as a tranquil sanctuary. Beautiful hardscaping, mature landscaping, a gas fireplace, and inviting outdoor living spaces create the perfect environment for relaxing or entertaining throughout the seasons. A full sprinkler system keeps the grounds beautifully maintained. Historic Third Avenue remains one of Durango's most treasured residential neighborhoods, where tree-lined streets and beautifully preserved homes tell the story of the city's early growth during the railroad era. This particular block is widely regarded as one of the most desirable stretches of "The Boulevard". This remarkable property represents a rare opportunity to become the next steward of a true Durango landmark.
